Book excerpt: If you were to ever ask Rex how he became the Dinosaur Keeper on Planet Chunk in the less fashionable side of the galaxy, which you wouldn't as it is still too far away and has no sign posts due to a slight argument with the council, he couldn't answer you. Not that he wouldn't, shouldn't or has some kind of false modesty, he literally can't remember anything before his eighteenth birthday, when he woke up on the plains of Chunk charged with the safety of twenty-two Velociraptors, thirty-six Stegosaurus, twelve Diplodocus and thirty-nine Pterodons These of course are not the only dinosaurs on the plains. Max, his leader and long term companion, is Rex's very best friend and the other, well let's just say that Rex would rather not talk about him, his razor sharp teeth, fondness for Rex's other companion as a tasty dinnertime treat and the fact that Rex, at Max's insistence, must catch him. No the rogue creature that lurks in the darkened woods, is definitely not one of Rex's favourite thoughts, concerns or occasional nightmares. However as nearly seventeen years have passed since Rex appeared on the plains Max is getting somewhat, and suspiciously, keen on Rex to confront and capture said rogue creature. Being watched constantly by person or persons unknown and the mention, although no full explanation, of previous Dinosaur Keepers isn't helping matters either. Why does Max think Rex can succeed where so many have obviously failed? Join Rex in the first book of the Dinosaur Keeper saga and see if you can solve the riddle of the Dinosaur Keeper.

No one knows her secret—at least, that’s what she thinks… But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known. But Sophie still has secrets, and they’re buried deep in her memory for good reason: The answers are dangerous and in high-demand. What is her true identity, and why was she hidden among humans? The truth could mean life or death—and time is running out.
